True Crime
Sanitation workers find the body of a young woman, which they picked up inadvertently along their route. She's dead of a single gunshot wound to the head, has track marks on her arms, as well as cocaine and heroine in her system and no identification. The M.E.has pulled her breast implants and through a serial number, tracks down the cosmetic surgeon who grudgingly identifies the patient as Patty Voytek. Briscoe (Jerry Orbach) and Green (Jesse L. Martin) go to Patty's billing address, a talent agency, and realize she goes by her pseudonym, Jane Hunt, and she's a professional musician. Jane's a semisuccessful rock guitarist who is actually better known as the girlfriend of Shane Mallory, the lead guitarist of a hugely successful cult-punk band called Krisis. Jane's final hours are traced -- she checked out of a rehab facility to go on a drug binge.
